    Rubber hood weatherstripping staining the top of the plastic grill.

    Noticed this while cleaning under the hood. Has been really hot here in Texas. What's the best way to remove these "stains" without scratching up the plastic?

    Bumper and door sill protectors - do they really help protect?

    As the topic suggests just wondering if these types of accessories really help to keep the vehicle clean and improve future resale value? They aren't very expensive but they do apply by a sticky tape backing. Wonder if this deteriorates and eventually ruins the finish.
